What does this car say about you?

I didn't buy it for what it says about me.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

They like it. My daughter especially likes the combination of white paint and black roof.

Yes. A combination of quality, compact size, solid build, Quattro.

What are you likely to buy next?

Too early to say.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£27,000

When did you buy the car?

March 2012

Did you get a good deal and why?

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Wanted a 4x4 following dreadful experiences in RWD BMW in the winter snow.

What was the dealer like?

What's it like to drive?

Easy, smooth, good mid-range torque. A real feeling of solid engineering. The engine sound is however slightly boring, and some of the interior design is dated such as radio (red illumination, non-touch screen) and reading lights (not LEDs, distracting).

What's it like to park?

No problem but front parking sensors would be nice having had them on my previous car.

Have you had any problems with the car?

No

What's most practical about your car?

4x4 traction; solid build quality.
